A parable

The Devil & OF & a piece of advice

The devil once convinced me that I was his daughter. I fell into deep self-doubt, diminishing myself worth by using OnlyFans. Later, when I learned I am a child of God I slowly tormented myself and abused my body by using it as an outlet. I was caught in the same cycle, misusing my body and mind through that platform. My pride and lust led me to use OnlyFans to seek approval and sell my body online. But this is not the whole story; it's just the beginning to end that chapter in my life.

For a long time, I was lost in darkness, searching for love through pride, lust, and money on OnlyFans. None of those things fulfilled my desires; instead, they left me craving for more and changed who I was. I started developing "cruel" intentions of those desires. In other words, those "cruel" intentions were negative intentions and further disconnect from my true self. The devil is a liar; he can never fulfill any desire, only create a hunger that turns you into a darker version of yourself. OnlyFans became sinful for me- it drew me further away from God intended me to be and nearly cost me my soul. Please don't make the same mistake. Instead, turn away from those destructive paths, seek repentance, and pray to God. A simple prayer helped me: “God, I repent. I’ve made mistakes. I ask for your forgiveness.” You may hear Him respond—many do.

In the beginning, I didn’t seek repentance. I thought I had it figured out, but I was weak and misguided. I always wanted to be strong, but that strength only comes from God and Jesus as my savior. The devil leads us toward temptation, but we must act before falling into sin. God forgives us if we sincerely seek repentance. My pride led me to crave money and lust simply because I wanted validation. I searched for explicit content online from people I admired, but never found what I expected. The reality is, exposing yourself for money and lust brings regret and attracts attention you don’t want. After exposing myself and regretting it, I’ve tried to delete my OnlyFans account many times. If you’re struggling, consider deleting yours as a creator or as a fan.

The devil had me in his grasp, making OnlyFans seem acceptable, but it’s not. He is deceptive, disguising himself as an angel of light to draw us in. Eventually, God warned me to stop posting my private photos or risk losing His protection. I didn’t listen at first, instead following the devil’s lies.

That's when I finally prayed: “I made a mistake and I’m sorry. I repent. I ask for your forgiveness, my Lord and savior Jesus Christ. I want to follow your lead.” There are so many people in darkness who need help—and I hope my story helps them see the light.

Using OnlyFans is about indulging lust and pride—it’s as simple as that. Lust is the intense desire for sexual fulfillment, and seeking it online only feeds that craving. Many creators use the platform for profit, often withholding what their fans expect, manipulating them into spending more. The end result is emptiness, not satisfaction.

Your body is sacred, a temple for the Holy Spirit. Selling your body and indulging in lust for money is not what God intended. It destroys your spirit piece by piece. These desires stem from sin, going back to the story of Adam and Eve. OnlyFans was not what I hoped it would be, and there’s no “good way” to use it—it's built on sexual immorality. As an exemplar of that, I learned off TooTurntTony.

I urge you not to go down this path, whether as a creator or fan. It’s not just about the content; it changes who you are. The Bible teaches that our bodies are temples, meant to be respected. Pursuing lust and pride for fleeting pleasure robs us of the greatness God intended.

I’ve faced deep trauma and loss in my life—losing family and being taken advantage of by predators when I was young. These wounds stay with me, but I am healing. This is my story, my parable. Jesus teaches that we were meant for greatness, not insignificance, and that we can reclaim that greatness through Him. He calls us not just to have faith, but to follow Him.

Psalm 34:18 says, “The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, And saves such as have a contrite spirit.” In times of pain and loss, God stands with us, offering comfort and hope. If you’re hurting, know that you are not alone. God is with you.
